Hiya, Choby,
Glad you didn't fall for that nonsense. I think this should be merged with the sticky on fake e-mails, as I'm certain there are people who would fall for it, as they are counting on a person's greed to get them to click. "I didn't order a platinum edition, but hey, there mistake is my gain." Shii |

Just as an update, we have gone ahead and manually wiped out all MSN IM id's from this forum database. You are still able as a user to choose to re input this information. If you do, just as before, you are assuming the risk of choosing to display your email address to anyone.

Good advice anymore...never clicky clicky anything you get emailed unless you know the sender ie friend spouse etc. Friend of mine got an email supposedly from her credit card company. Addy looked legit, she did the clicky clicky, site it sent her to looked right...boom. She got trojaned out the wazoo and her credit screwed with.

There are similar versions of this circulating around the internet from places claiming to be CNN or MSNBC, and also hawking a fake version of IE7 that is nothing more than a simple rogue Antivirus progam that really isnt an Antivirus program.
